Operations Leader | Strategy & Automation | Bilingual

I make complex operations simple.

After 13 years as a massage therapist, I learned to see systems. Where the tension is. What needs support. How the parts connect.

The shoulder that's actually a hip problem. The headache that starts in the jaw. The back pain that's really about stress.

Same principle applies to operations. The slow report that's actually a data problem. The bottleneck that everyone works around. The manual process no one questions because "that's how we've always done it."

What I Do Now

I build automations for teams drowning in manual work.

Google Workspace workflows. Data pipelines. AI integrations. The systems that turn "four hours every Monday" into "it just happens."

Core philosophy: analyze what teams need, identify gaps, build solutions that empower colleagues to excel at their highest-value work.

The goal is always to make myself unnecessary. Build systems that empower teams, not create dependencies.

The Numbers

  • 10,000+ lines of production code deployed
  • 250+ hours/year saved through automation
  • 46% to 62% profitability turnaround
  • 60% onboarding acceleration
  • 200+ users enabled across systems
  • 13 years in wellness and health coaching
  • 3 AI agents running in production

The Path Here

I didn't start in tech.

I started with bodies. Massage therapy. Health coaching. Helping people understand their own patterns.

Then I started building tools for my practice. Scheduling. Client tracking. The stuff I couldn't find good solutions for.

Then I got hired to do operations work. Started automating the painful parts. Discovered I was good at seeing where systems break down and building the fixes.

Now I do both. The systems thinking from wellness. The technical skills from years of building. They complement each other more than you'd expect.

Current Focus

Google Workspace add-ons - Launching products that solve the problems Google's native tools don't quite handle.

Sovereign Alchemy - A wellness app in development. AI-powered personal sovereignty. Building in public.

SAVANT - My personal AI assistant system. The lab where I test ideas before turning them into products.

Writing

I also write. The newsletter is called With Jhi — personal essays about building a life on purpose. Systems and soul, spreadsheets and surrender. The stuff that doesn't fit on a portfolio site but shapes everything I build.
